One of the cornerstones of my creativity system is to go to author talks and lectures. It's incredibly stimulating for the creative mind, you get to meet some fascinating people, and you can absorb new and interesting ideas.
I am also a really big proponent of dealing with death in a mature way, and I think it's something we really don't do very well in Australia.
So I am very excited to announce that my friend Rosalind Bradley is talking about her book A Matter of Life and Death at the New Church in Roseville in February.
I am definitely going to this event, and I think you should too - it looks fascinating:

The Circle of Life
Presented by author Rosalind Bradley
Ros talks about her latest book for which she collected 60 amazing stories from a fascinating range of people from all walks of life.
Sharing their unique insights and wisdom about death and dying using a chosen image or passage which best expresses death for them, they reveal that beyond the heartache
and mystery of death lay invaluable lessons on how we live our lives.
About Rosalind
After life in the UK, Ros had an eclectic career from teaching in remote Papua New Guinea to
freelance marketing in Sydney.
She worked for charities including The Fred Hollows Foundation, was Board Member of The Asylum Seekers Centre of NSW, and Eremos, a forum for exploring Australian spirituality. Her interfaith interest was triggered while in London during the 2005 bombings, resulting in her book Mosaic: Favourite prayers and reflections.
Her mother’s death sparked a curiosity into death leading her to compile A Matter of Life and Death.
A volunteer biographer at Sacred Heart Hospice in Sydney, Ros also worked with PalliativeCare NSW and their Volunteer Program.
